Oh to be a fly on the wall for this conversation!!! I can just imagine Augustine‘s face getting all red and smoke coming out of his ears. For the man who came up with original sin, and then made it an STD, this man‘s hang ups should be seen as such, not as Theology. This is my favourite part of this book, though (if I‘m being honest). #thomascahill #history #philosophy #theology #augustine #julianofeclanum #tantrum
GingerAntics @Branwen this is my favourite quote by him. I can always picture his face getting red and smoke coming out of his ears. This is the tantrum he threw because some people didn‘t have such a negative stilted view of sexuality as him. This was his reaction because someone saw sex as this thing God creates, so it must be good, as God said. Clearly, this man was not well. I have no idea why people still cling to this madness. 6y
